#1590 parked up the side street and walked to GZ just as I was getting there some people were coming the other way so went into the park came back and missed the cache a couple of times then spotted it, slightly different to any I had seen before. Another person was coming along the road so took the log to my car to sign

Signed the log and replaced as found. Both the cache and log are in good condition. Thanks for the cache 2deka

13-Jul-17
The council came and tidy up the area and in doing so they mulched the log the log was in
 
30-Jun-17
Nice hide.
Found with Volplaner, we started at the "mini transformer" but there were workers cleaning up at the site, change of plan saw us heading to Voyager park after a bit of searching around Volplaner spotted it.
TFTC. This find achieved my goal of reaching 500 by the end of June.
 
30-Jun-17
Found with X-Pair. Neat cache, had a pleasant walk around local suburb and park.
 
13-Jun-17
Quick find as one thing in the area stood out and with close inspection the cache presented itself.
A little damp as one end is open but still writable .

Ahh, so good to finally get a smiley for this one - for one reason or another, I haven't been able to ever pick this one on my various adventures. Did a slight detour on our way home for a quick find of this nice little hide. Thankfully the courts were free which allowed an easy search.

TFTC
 
09-Jan-17
Spent way too long looking for this one, had camo in hand once before but didn't look close enough. A rewarding find eventually! Unfortunately the log was soaked and impossible to extract so i added a little piece of paper with my signature on it. Thank you for a great cache and greetings from Finland! Smile

Out caching on the first day of 2017 with Brewmaker around Holsworthy and Voyager Point.
We parked the car nearby and walked across to gz. No tennis for me today and no muggles around. We read the hint, wich gave a bit of a clue, but still searched for a while around gz. Finally Brew picked something up and saw the cache laying on the ground. We signed the log, and then saw the little hidey hole where it belonged. Very clever and quite difficult to spot. I just hope the camo remains here and doesn't get carried off. TFTC Big Grin
 
01-Jan-17
OCW MV1 on NYD. Found the centre court and after spending a few minutes checking different places, I spied the container outside the camo. Ah, so that's where it shoud be! Signed then replaced inside the camo, ready for the next finder to discover. TFTC and happy New Caching Year. Smile

This one is very sneaky, however a quick find was made today. No muggle here today. TFTC
 
24-Aug-16
A quick find considering the rain and the cache camo TFTC
 
07-Aug-16
A great day of caching in Sydney today. The weather was working with me well and my legs were not to sore from yesterday. Came in from Waterfall and via Heathcote and Liverpool ended up in Hoxwell Park and Cecil Hills. This was one of many caches, thanks for placing it!

Nice to finally find this one. It's much easier when the tennis courts are empty! Nice camo. TFTC!
Cheers,

Excellent integration in the environment, my compliments. TFTC!
 
06-Apr-16
Coords were excellent. I saw something that wasn't quite weathered enough and found the cache. Unfortunately I saw the headless body of a small possum in a tree nearby. I suspect it might have been the prey of a cat. TFTC

26/3/16. 9:13 AM. Cache #3681. Streak day #643.
2nd of 5 finds today - Voyager Point, Hammondville & Holsworthy.

Second one in a row from the same CO, as I had just come here from "MINI TRANSFORMER". That last one had had very accurate coordinates and so I assumed the same would be the case here. I wondered if it would be the same sort of hide but there was none of that camo here. I looked up and down the fence and then varied my search a little. Something caught my eye and was worth inspecting closer...I wonder if this...oh that is sneaky! Great camo - I'll give this one a fave point. On to "Woof Woof 2" next. TFTC.

Love this

Worth a favourite point
 
27-Feb-16
Came once before but a tennis match turned me away. This time I waited for muggles from the Hall to go inside. I looked at the cache 3 times before I convinced myself it was it. Great camo, thanks. Found with Happy Jackie.
 
08-Feb-16
What a great little hide. Just the thing that geoboy and I needed during some down time. Tftc.
 
01-Feb-16
Tftf...
 
18-Jan-16
This was a great find number 3 for the day. I was busy looking around. When 3 Geokids turned up looking for the some cache. I only found out later that it was their 1st cache. They looked a round a bit and spoke a little and they took off. Only a few minutes after they left I turn the cache excellent cache camo. Fav point from me. TFTC.
 
08-Jan-16
Nice hide took me a while to spot it. I looked at it a couple of times but didn't pick it. TFTC. Off to the next one around the corner.
 
07-Jan-16
Found it!! We nearly gave up. Great cache
 
03-Jan-16
Wow that is very well constructed and blended into its surroundings, a favourite point from us, thanks.

21-Dec-15
I got around to replacing it
 
17-Dec-15
I have a new log and am going to place it in a new location in the next few days when I get the new coordinates I have been a bit slack !!
 
17-Dec-15
Any updates on the replacement? (Prefer not to request archive, just yet)....
 
05-Jul-15
In the area this morning.
I did a pocket query this morning before going out and have discovered that disabled caches do not show up as that.
Oh well, it was a nice spot to visit and I will be back soon.
 
13-Jun-15
This one seems to have gone missing again Sad
 
31-May-15
With the large white ducks cheering me on in the background; I had this cache in hand quite quickly.
 
18-May-15
Grabbed this while out cycling. Didn't have a pen so submitted a photo of the log instead. Don't think it gives too much away.
 
03-Apr-15
Saw that this cache is back on the map so to speak , so grabbed geo dog and daughter and headed off to see if we can bag a cache. A quite walk in the drizzle soon had us at the spot. After not finding this cache last year it looked like a repeat this time but after reading past logs I soon found what I was after. Thanks 2 déka for the cache and a fav point for the time and effort put into the cache. Hopefully this one stays in location.
 
06-Mar-15
Finally got around to finishing a replacement cache and placed it back in the same place as the old one that vanished. Cool
 
02-Mar-15
I am making a new one to place in this spot, I should have it in place before the end of the month of March. Big Grin
 
30-Oct-14
After the last log I thought I should check if it was still there!! No it has gone again so I will have to see about making another one unless it re appears Sad
 
29-Oct-14
No joy in Voyager Point again today. Searched all over but couldn't find it.
 
21-Sep-14
Ah-hah! After reading the previous logs I knew what to look for. But still. Wow. That camo is amazing!
 
16-Aug-14
TFTC. First thought was how am I going to find this one but once I got off path it was first thing I looked at!
 
02-Aug-14
Found this cache easy. All the other similar object were removed as per previous logs.

TFTC.
 
24-Jul-14
You wood not believe it read the last log Very Happy
 
23-Jul-14
You wouldn't believe me if I told you but I was collecting some sticks and logs for a Fire Pit a few months ago. It had been years since I had been geocaching and didn't think much about it until recently when a friend gave me the geocaching bug again. After looking at nearby caches to tackle I noticed that yours was temporarily closed. Noting that the "Entire Log" has gone I had the dreaded thought. Luckily it hasn't yet been burnt despite sitting in my backyard for 2 months. I will go replace it to where I think I got it but if you want to check I put it in the right spot it might be best.
 
22-Jul-14
Any news?
 
04-Jun-14
Went to the site yesterday only to find the section of log with cache in had gone[:!]
 
17-May-14
Not cool.... Looked everywhere
 
05-May-14
Doh. Sad
To many hidey holes.
Nice park though.
 
30-Mar-14
Couldn't find it Sad Lots of possibles. Will try again another day.
 
16-Mar-14
So third time lucky and patience and determination definitely were the key to success today. We had looked for this cashe before, but were looking in the wrong place. Today we knew we were in the right place, zero feet away....but where is it?? After a good 30min hunting one of our platoon needed the bathroom. So we left and returned. After another lengthy search of more than 45 mins, Geodad hit the jackpot. Sigh...finally!!! But argh, if only we had looked more closely. It was where we had initially looked and was at exact co-ords. Lesson learnt and we moved onto mini transformer, taking with us a whole new perspective. Very clever camo, well done! Thanks for the hunt and thanks for the cashe xo
 
22-Feb-14
Wandered around. Bitten by 2 bull ants. Spotted plenty of possible hides. Found nothing.
40 minutes later gave up.

Don't expect I'll be back for this one...
 
19-Feb-14
Finally I can log this find. I dont know how I missed this on the last visit. It must be the rain.
 
27-Jan-14
Tftc. Top camo.
 
08-Jan-14
After failed at previous 5 caches in the area i was starting to loose it. However this one was a nice 15minute find Wink . Very clever! Summer is on its way watch out for bushfires Wink ...
 
22-Dec-13
Had a quick look around on this hot day. With 3 of us looking, we didnt find it. Will come back later. Tfth.
 
11-Nov-13
Excellent camo - very glad to knock this one over. Third time was the charm! I hope this one sticks around.
 
09-Nov-13
Failed again! I've decided to employ a three strike policy. One more try and then I'm asking for a hint! No worries. More caching was to be had Smile
 
07-Nov-13
Pretty sure something dodgy was going down tonight at the Park... Got outta there ASAP :p
 
23-Oct-13
With high temperatures and my patience wearing thin quicker than usual, wasn’t a big fan of bush micros today but kept coming back to some items right at GZ that I thought would make perfect camo for my own hides. Just as well I didn’t just give up and souvenir them as the cache owner obviously had the same idea. Nice work!
 
18-Oct-13
Thanks for the very sneaky hide.
Had to paf after 1/2hr of searching all along I was all most standing on it, nice job!

Cheers
 
17-Oct-13
Found after work while my brain was still functioning.
Very clever hide.
 
16-Oct-13
Found in about 5 seconds, co ords were spot on. Nice little sucker. Thanks Cool
 
12-Oct-13
Too hard for me today! Spent 20 minutes scratching round but no luck. Probably didn't try hard enough so will return again Smile
 
29-Sep-13
GPS whirring around and satellite map with Apple maps is useless (need a google phone!) and also, found the clue unhelpful as it told me little about the actual hide or cache container... Guess it just wasn't my day.
 
27-Sep-13
So hard. I uh, opened it from the wrong end. Good spot though.
 
03-Sep-13
Searched for about 20 mins. Had no luck. I will be back once it has been found again.
 
22-Jul-13
Couldn't find it
 
05-Jul-13
I went to check the today. It was hard to get the log out so improved on it and all is ok Thanks xelanhoj
PLEASE OPEN THE TUBE FROM THE PLASTIC CAP END
 
04-Jul-13
Tftc. Log wet, could not extract the log from container, wrote name on paper and put in container. Took photo and will email CO. Creative!
 
24-Jun-13
Because this ones micro you will need your powers of observation set to "High" because of the many places it can be. The coords are pretty good and found it after 10 minutes looking.
Nice hide.

15-Jun-13
We searched a long time, but no joy.
 
15-Jun-13
Returned back here today for another look with more time availabe, a semi bush micro hmmm where could it be ??

Checked the spots that were previously looked at but come up with nothing... looked at the hint when all of a sudden BINGO !


Didn't look hard enough last time - this time the cache was found ! Big Grin

VERY Clever
Well done - TFTC
 
13-Jun-13
And it's back for a further look on this one
Well done RS
 
13-Jun-13
Went in not really expecting to have much success, since Cheeky Cachers turned up nothing but a DNF.

Checked everywhere that I thought made sense, given the hint. Unfortunately the hint was a bit vague - turning this into basically a bush micro without much guidance. Will be curious to see where it turns up.

Glad to see some Voyager Point caches, by the way. Certainly this park area is a great spot for one.
 
13-Jun-13
FTF at 8am this morning, unfortunately I had to get some help from the CO, so not completely legit!

Thanks 2deka a great first hide.
 
13-Jun-13
When I was in first form (year 7) at Bonnyrigg High in 1964 one of my class mate's father was on Voyager when it was hit and sunk by the Melbourne, luckily he survived. Melbourne also went on to cut an American destroyer in half as well in 1969, the 'Frank E Evans'. Not the most lucky ship in the RAN.

Very sad - no find, I was here for a VERY LONG TIME but nothing to show.
I will keep a watch and come back
